"My Life"....Mommy Diaries!

Izzy is potty trained! We have taught Izzy to go "number 2" on the potty! Yes, that is so exciting, but I have to tell you the story of what happened this morning. You might want to hold off on potty training after you hear this. Or better yet, send your child to the grandparents house for this stage of life! We just got in from Arkansas real late lastnight. We arrive to a clean house, because we are having life group over on Sunday. So we have a ton of luggage to unpack and I am trying to keep the house very clean until then. If you guys know me, this really stresses me out. Well, Izzy showes me that she needs to use the potty, so I run over to her, strip her down and set her on the pot in front of the t.v. with a book. She finishes, so I do the "yeah Izzy" dance. Meanwhile, she is standing there without a diaper and a messy bottom. So I quickly run to get some wipes. (Yes, I should have already thought about that, but I didn't!) So I get back to one of my dogs, eating out of the pot like it is a treat! I scream of course, run the dog to it's room just in time to see Izzy standing so proudly up against the window waving her arms like she loves to do. Now I have to clean off the window seal, pick up the pot out of the floor so the other dog doesn't get into it, and put a diaper on my child before she does number 1 in the floor. I bet you can already guess what is going to happen next..... Camry, my other dog has discovered the "treat" in the floor. In case your wondering, Camry is our good dog, I never thought she would do that, but she did. So the story can go on. I finally got everything cleaned up. Izzy got a diaper on in time, and the dogs are going to the groomer today. The house is sanitized again, but not before I had a huge laugh. I thought this story might amuse some of you moms out there. Please tell me you have had mornings like this!
